The best way to determine crappy roads is........
Does that region get snow?
If they get snow, that means they salt the roads and if they salt the roads...they roads are gonna be crappy.
Salt kills pavement, even after the snow/winter is far gone. States can NOT keep up with repairs or some don't have the budget to fix them...
So, here comes You with the 19inch $3000 rims and BANG!!!...bent rim= $$$$'s out of your pocket...
